The Priest and the Matador



Edited by / fiohistory



Here I lie, I'm staring at

Clouds and shapes of dogs and cats

I hear a woman, start to yell

"Oh dear God, I think he fell"



I'm the arrow shot straight to hell

From the bow of William Tell

My body lies kissing the ground

Like a cross turned upside down



A priest is rushing to my side

Begins to read me, my last rites

Father, you're too late, my faith is weak

So won't you save your half-hearted speech



I'm the arrow shot straight to hell

From the bow of William Tell

My body lies kissing the ground

Like a cross turned upside down



A man bends down and says

"Son, we're going to get through this one

Take my hand and let us pray"

I scream, "Please get the fuck away"



I'm the arrow shot straight to hell

From the bow of William Tell

My body lies kissing the ground

Like a cross turned upside down



The ambulance is singing

As cops push back the crowd

I start to take my last breath

As blood pours out my mouth



The medics walk in my way

I think this could be it

I hear 'em start to state

The time of death is half past six



I'm the arrow shot straight to hell

I'm the arrow shot straight to hell
